Grief

Once you encounter grief 
Every death pulls your heartstrings
A loss swings with a soft wing 
Recall the terrible place
Feelings rush over in a wedding ring 
A room in your heart remains vacant
Time closes the door 
Painful memories in the present 
Occasionally visit 
Feel the feelings of empty 
Roll over 
Shift the mind to safety 


Time comes and goes
Grief cuts 
It never gets old.
